EPMD is in the building people!!! Thanks for coming thru to pick up some Parish gear for the Brooklyn block party. Look out for their upcoming umphteenth album "WE MEAN BUSINESS", which will be released thru Unique Distribution. They will release a 12 inch single called "Blow" on "VINYL" that will hit stores Aug.13th. . .RECOGNIZE, fool!!!
Big ups to DJ SCRATCH for showing love as well.

3-2-1 CONTACT!!!

2007-08-11T15:59:00.000-04:00

That's the hope!!! That we are making contact with our supporters and fans. Trying to become a mainstay brand in this oversaturated industry, its easy to lose focus on the faction of consumer's who save that allowance, or sell that candy to keep the dream going. Thanks to all the kids that came thru for the Fall/Winter Parish Photo shoot. Chris I haven't forgot about you either blood. Holla @ the camp!!!

MICHEAL WILLIAMS OF HBO'S THE WIRE

2007-08-11T15:46:00.000-04:00

The street's is watchin'. . .The Wire hopefully. One of the most prolific show's HBO has put out since the Sopranos. Our man Mike came thru to show some love. Thanks for the dvd's. And who's doing the Emmy® Nominations again? Ya'll been put on notice! Out of approx. 86 nominations for one network (HBO), The Wire didn't get one nod. Hmmmmm. . .Its all good though, we know what it is.

ITS NOT A GAME!!!

2007-08-11T15:32:00.000-04:00

Ok, maybe it is. . .just a game. . .But it was all business for the Parish EBC team. Down by twelve by halftime, the squad put in some serious work to take the lead by the third quarter where we kept a respectable 7pt lead up until the last two minutes of the 4th quarter, where PhatFarm tried to pose a threat. However Ron Artest a "Tru Warier" and the rest of the camp made sure we left with the crown and the belt. See you in the playoff's!

BALLIN!

2007-08-09T13:00:00.000-04:00

You already know what it is. And if you don't . FIX YA FACE!
Its the EBC Ruckers game! Come out and support the Parish Team.
Aug 9,2007 Thursday we play Phat Farm at 7:30pm
@ Holcombe Rucker Memorial Park
Harlem, New York 155th St and 8th Ave.

John Coltrane

2007-08-09T12:16:00.000-04:00

Here is what else that is spinning in the Parish Design Lab.
Some John Coltrane. Here are my 3 favorite Coltrane records:

Africa Brass Sessions / First Meditations / Crescent

All his shit is good but Crescent probably is the most accessible.
Near the end of his life, his music transcended the confines of western music
and started to lean towards the spiritual. If you're tired of your played out
playlist, throw some Coltrane on. You won't be disappointed.

True Story!!!

cop a sqWHAT?!

2007-04-03T12:31:00.000-04:00

GOD is in the details....

FIG. 1

This was a toilet we ran into at a Chinese foot massage parlor. Needless to say, had I ate my fried noodles with
the chilli pepper sauce this would not have been the best prospect for the task at hand.

NOTE: The fruit flys hanging around the hole of this toilet are not visible due to the shady gutter this stall was in.
Yeah you heard right. Its a stall. So while also hoping you don't get fecal matter on your nice Parish denim, you
have to wave chanting "OPP" fruit flys from holes they should have no business around. GOOD LUCK!!!

FIG. 2

This is the toilet God made for heaven. However, some assnut of a twat thought it best to put one in a ktv bar.

NOTE: The control panel to the side of this marvelous porcelain throne. It has a remarkable water pressure valve
for freshness, a perfectly gauged tropical seat heater, and a precise blow valve to rid you of any unwanted dingle
berries that may be hanging around the nether regions.
